Ok. Here is the torrc file:

Where in this torrc file is that configured?
Then set it to 'any' and wait 24-48 hours to see what happens. Maybe there was an error in the db.
If your bridge is still not distributed, it could be due to the outdated obfs4proxy or because of 'AccountingMax 5 GB'. Sorry but, 5 GB is a 'fart in the wind' the accounting period would only be a few hours a month. It's not even worth distributing them because it would only frustrate the users.
And how would it be blocked in Russia already if it hasn't even been used?
Why should this new feature of the bridgedb, more precisely the rdsys backend, have anything to do with whether someone uses a bridge? This is a bridgedb distribution method introduced by meskio.
